Essential Question

What were the responses of non-western countries to New Imperialism?

China, Japan, and Sudan initially responed to imperialism by driving out the foreigners with force, however this proved to be unsuccessful.  Many Asians then felt they needed to defend their traditional culture.  Egypt, on the other hand, desired to match the western society.  Europeans were eventually able to exchange hostility in resisters for a sense of nationalism and political self-determination.
